E                D
Conversation, getting’ so hard to make
              A                        E
I try to communicate, but I can’t get through
          E                 D
We are strangers, but I remember when
            A                           E
You used to be my friend, and my lover too.


[Chorus]
      C#m7                         D
And I don’t really know how it happened
      C#m7                      C
And I don’t really know what to say, 
        F#m7          B9            E
I just wonder how we ever got this way?


       E                        D
Conversation, that’s what it’s all about
               A                                  E
Why can’t we talk it out, and say what’s on our minds?
    E                    D
Situation, keep getting in the way
              A                                   E
So much we need to say, but we’re running out of time.


[Chorus]
      C#m7                        D
And I don’t really know how it happened
      C#m7                     C
I have tried but I don’t understand
       F#m7       B9               E
How we ever let it get so out of hand


[Bridge]
                 D                  E
It’s just like a dream you can’t remember
       D                         E
Even though you always wish you could
           D                 E
When it’s gone, it’s gone forever
           D                               E
When it’s gone, it’s gone for G – o – o – o – o – D



         E                        D
Conversation, things that we’ve done and said
               A                          E
Keep running though my head, like a sad echo
      E                    D
Desperations, gettin’ the best of me
               A                            E
Cause I can’t make you see, and I can’t let go…no!


[Chorus]
       C#m7                       D
And I don’t really know how it happened
       C#m7                      C
And I don’t really know what to say
       F#m7                 B9            E
But I can’t bring myself to throw it all away
